Never thought an Alpina would make me yawn. Why does this even exist? Just to know that your dumb X7 is THE highest trim among the others at dance/cheer classes?

I don’t really care about the Branco, but damn if that livery doesn’t look fantastic on that car.

In related news Ford surprised everyone by rolling out an refreshed and updated Pinto with a Gender-Reveal Package (GRP). The GRP Pintos only come in blue or pink and are specially equipped with the original gas tanks in the original locations. Because safety-first, car-seat loops have been installed in the back seat.

Wait, you mean someone introduced a new truck, and they’re promoting its use as... a truck? Read more

Especially if you pull in at an angle, should be no problem. As long as you don't get the front wing option ;) Read more

Doesn’t look half bad.  Not liking that instrument cluster at all, but I don’t like digital clusters anyway.  Will be interesting to see in the flesh and also how the third row is packaged [whether it’s a GX-like seats or cargo or big enough to actually put a little person or 2 back there with cargo behind the seats] Read more

I’m just glad Acura is doing something.  I miss the Acura of yore. Read more

1999 called and they want their impressive power numbers back.
